Vox B-226

Little is documented about the Vox B-226. Every period reference found that uses the designation "B-226" belongs to the Revox B226-S CD player, part of Revox's B200-S series. No source in the archive connects this model number to a Vox product. If a Vox-badged B-226 existed, it left no trace in the available record.

What the period press does show concerns the Revox unit. High Fidelity (January 1989, p.34) ran a test report on the Revox B-226S. An equipment profile in Audio (March 1990, p.70) gave the manufacturer's specifications: frequency response 20 Hz to 20 kHz ±0.1 dB, THD 0.004%, signal-to-noise ratio 102 dB unweighted and 108 dB A-weighted. Remote control was optional through a family of Revox controllers. The B208 hand-held remote cost $160, the B210 table-top remote $995, the B207 infrared transmitter $350, and the B200-S system controller $1,295.

If you have a Vox B-226, or a catalog page showing one, the Archive would like to see it.
